Former President Donald Trump introduced a possible new campaign slogan Saturday night at the Faith & Freedom Coalition conference in Washington, DC: “I will be impeached for you.”
Trump chaired the Saturday night gala of the conference and continued to complain about recent federal charges against him for misappropriating confidential documents. He again argued that he was merely an ex-president “lawfully holding his own documents”.
The crowd shouted “USA” at him as he announced, “I’m probably the only person in history who has been charged and my number has increased.”
“Every time the far-left Democrats, Marxists, communists and fascists impeach me, I take it as a great sign of courage,” Trump said.
Trump slammed President Joe Biden for his son Hunter’s business ties with China, suggesting that the president was soft on the rising power because of his family’s financial entanglements.
Former President Donald Trump introduced a possible new campaign slogan Saturday night at the Faith & Freedom Coalition conference in Washington, DC: “I will be impeached for you.”
Trump read the crowd a text message from Hunter to a Chinese business associate, saying Hunter was with Joe at the time “and we’d like to understand why the commitment made hasn’t been fulfilled.”
“That’s cash he’s talking about,” Trump told the crowd of the “commitment.”
‘Can you belive that? “I didn’t know he was that tough,” he said, drawing laughter.
The ex-president implied that President Biden is doing nothing to prevent China from establishing military installations in Cuba.
“Unless I come back in,” Trump said. “In that case, I will notify China that they have 48 hours to get any military and spy equipment out of Cuba, or I will drop the hammer and there will be tariffs unlike anything China has seen before.”
Trump was easily the favorite speaker at the conference, which was attended by all the major Republican presidential candidates for 2024.
“I have a question to ask Ralph: Have your other candidates been treated like this?” Trump said, turning to Faith & Freedom Coalition founder Ralph Reed, who sat on the podium behind him and cheered the crowd.
Trump then joked that a presidential candidate was “booed off the stage,” alluding to New Jersey Gov. Chris Chrstie, whose criticism of Trump earned him heavy heckling at the conference on Friday morning.
